I've been on the birth control pill for 2 months now, each time when i go on my week break my period comes exatly 3 days after i take my last pill, but both these periods have been quite light with mostly brown blood. I was on antibiotics for a week, but i didn't have sex during that time, or for a week after. I'm just concerned i might be pregnant, but i heard it may just be the pill changing hormones? Any answers would be greatly appreciated!

Brown blood is just blood that is old. It is true that the pill changes our hormones as our body tries to adjust to it. It is possible that your body may still be trying to adjust to being on the pill. It can take 3 months to fully adjust to being on the pill.
I would double check with your dr to be on the safe side though.

first things first, if your really concerned about being pregnant take a test or see your local gp just to make sure.
BUT, your period can sometimes be brownish in colour, due to changing hormones. And you said it was light? It could just be a brown discharge, not your actual period.
The antibiotics shouldn't have affected you being on the Pill. Before prescribing your antibiotics your doctor should have asked if you were on the Pill if it was going to affect you in anyway..
Hope this helps!! If your still worried, it couldnt hurt to visit your doctor for a check-up.

Is this the first time you have been on the pill? you said you were taking antibiotics it could be this, depending on the reason you needed the antibiotics, I pretty sure your safe , but just to be on the safe side do a at home pregnancy test, antibiotics can stop the full affect of the pill so you were smart not to have intercourse, good luck to you and don't panic too much, we all have!!!

Pregnancy is the best! And it doesn't sound like your pregnant. Do another test when your due on next. I done a test a week before i found out and it said negative so your just have to wait x And person below, anti biotics do not kill the baby, div
